Sorry, I haven't posted in a bit, having some health issues. My RA seems to have flared up again, making my knees very painful to walk, and when you have that type of pain it's hard to concentrate, so needless to say I have not been in the mood for much. Feeling better yesterday and much better today. It's one of those things where you just never know when a flare up can happen. You just have to deal with it. It's been about 4 years since my last flare up. Enough about that, lets get on with the cards.
Today, I have a couple of birthday cards to share, using the same stamps but changed up the colours and design.
All products are from Gina K - A little love kit. Love her kits, they come with stamps, dies, sentiments and stencils - so fun. I also used a die from Pinkfresh Studio which I used on my first card for the gold foil leaves.
I used the stencil in my Misty to create the backgrounds. Once completed, I then used the rectangle stitch die from Master Layouts 2 to cut out a part of the stenciled background, leaving enough to die cut an extra floral and leaves.
I added some gold foiled leaves (die from Pinkfresh Studio) in behind my pop up floral. Sentiment is also from Gina K - stamped in black versafine. Added some SSS fine glitter to the centers of the flowers and also some pearls to finish off.

These are amazing, Pauline! I love your cards so much that I went and looked up the kit. I never would have envisioned this much beauty in that kit, but you have an eye for it. I love how you've shaded the larger flowers. Surely that's not all just done with the stencils? My jaw is dropped. I hope your flare up eases soon. I don't have RA, but arthritis pain gets the better of me sometimes. My hands and feet are the worst. Currently having such a foot pain problem that I can barely walk around the house. Knees, too. I'm too young for this!
